That's my take as well but the one thing you can be sure of is that it won't be simple to make those determinations, well unless you're Beccs maybe. If it is likely that at some point you'd need the help of others to get it done, you'd have to assess whether you can rely on them and whether you'd want to put that on them.
I wouldn't be in any damned hurry to get it done, that's for sure. It could be important to act while you still can and that could factor into the decision. But some pain would be worth paying just to exist. Past some point, it wouldn't be worth it any longer. At that point I don't think it would hard to opt out, and of course at some point I'm sure I would.
